Had a girl I used to mess around with, she was a doctor (pretty specialized field) and makes a fortune.
You could have. A buddy of mine from high school grew up pretty poor, but he was smart and pretty crafty. He made it through medical school. He thought that would be his ticket . He ended up marrying a gal who is also a doctor. She’s highly specialized and much more ambitious than him, so she makes bank and he spends most of his time sailing around the Puget Sound. They both seem pretty happy.Had a girl I used to mess around with, she was a doctor (pretty specialized field) and makes a fortune.
She wanted it bad (a relationship and ring...not my dong) but I blew that off.
Looking back on it now, I could have had a really nice easy life of doing nothing at all
The rapist
I get a little nauseated when I hear “she completes me” but in many ways it’s often true. Personally, my wife’s strengths and influence have made me a better person.
Not rich but makes a little more than I did. I retired 5 years ago at 56 and she gets me health insurance. I saved like crazy before retirement and she will retire at 55 eventually. She's 12 years younger than me.
The fact that you would want a life of “doing nothing at all” isn’t a great selling point for you.Had a girl I used to mess around with, she was a doctor (pretty specialized field) and makes a fortune.

My wife and I are both medical professionals and at 68 we’re both still working.
That is great if you are both doing want you want. Some people want to keep working, some have to keep working and some don't have to or want to. When I got laid off at 56 I thought about finding a new job but decided I didn't want to start over somewhere else and I did not need the money. So I got back into some old hobbies I had ignored and found a new one. I could be busier but I like having no commitments or obligations.
Everyone is different and retirement may surprise people. It may not be the nirvana many think. Definitely not for me- thought it would be.
